We are supposed to be using the Thin list.
When we have had this problem, the user has lost their permissions on
their profile.
Hope this helps

Subject: [THIN] User logon issues since applying SP4 and Security Update

First:  Are we on ThinList or Topica?  I see messages from both.

I am having some very strange issues since I applied SP4 and the
"Security"
update from MS.

First, the configuration:
1 - Windows 2000 Server (for data and such)
2 - Windows 2000 Servers Terminal Server with Citrix load balanced
1 - Farm with PN published for full desktop

A user goes to login and after a VERY long waiting period - about 3
minutes of
Applying Personal Settings... Receives the error message:
Windows did not load your roaming profile and is attempting to log on
with your
local profile.  Changes to the profile will not be copied to the server
when you
log off.  Windows did not load your profile because a server copy of the
profile
already exists that does not have the correct security.  Either the
current user
or the Administrator's group must be the owner of the folder.  Contact
your
network administrator.  (with an OK button).  Click OK and then this
message
comes up.

Windows can not find the local profile and is logging you on with a
temporary
profile.  Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log
off.  (With
an OK button).

Click OK, then there is a VERY long wait - sometimes up to 7 minutes of
APPLYING
PERSONAL SETTINGS, then one of two things happen.  The screen goes
totally BLUE
for about 5 more minutes then logs in, OR it logs in.

This doesn't happen to All users, ONLY some.

Then what is even stranger - for those users it does happen to, depends
on what
machine they are on as to what exactly happens.  I have a user that CAN
ONLY log
on to my second server.  When he does, he only gets the FIRST error
message, not
the second.  BUT, goes to try to log onto to the first server and gets
both and
doesn't let him in.  It gives him the second message but with an added
ACCESS
DENIED in the window.

User gets in and works totally fine the rest of the day, but then goes
to log
off and the Saving Settings appears for a LONG time and/or the screen
goes to
total BLUE for a long time?

Nothing has changed on the servers except the SP4 and Security Update.

What's keeping you from getting more from your terminal servers? Did you
know, in most cases, CPU Utilization IS NOT the single biggest
constraint to scaling up?! Get this free white paper to understand the
real constraints & how to overcome them. SAVE MONEY by scaling-up rather
than buying more servers.
